Create ICS file based on Calendar Component?

Questions

1

Is there a way to generate a ICS file based on a calendar event?

2

Figured it out :slight_smile: . Ended up using a snippet that runs ics.js ( https://github.com/nwcell/ics.js/ ) to create and download the file.

Cool idea, can you share your skuid specific code Tyler?

Rich,

Here is a sample page that uses the referenced JavaScript library. I added the ics.js library as an inline script. You would probably be better off to create a static resource from the ics.js file and reference it on your page.

Thanks,

Bill
